In principle there are only three main components of spending that much matter to monetary policy: consumer spending business investment and exports and trade.

If you have a line of business - I know this as a CEO - or if you have a teenager - I know this as a parent - who have a spending problem what do you do? You quit giving them money.

My approach to cutting spending as president is to do a ten percent across the board cut of all federal agencies and then ask each of my new agency heads to find another ten percent by drilling down. That's what you do in business to come up with approximately 20 percent cuts for the first fiscal year budget.

There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down simply by spending his money somewhere else.

You can have a laugh in Los Angeles or you can weep in Los Angeles depending on your attitude towards it.

Nothing. We're all friends and friendly. So when the cameras go down depending on the mood or the nature of the material we're dealing with there's usually a kind of a prevailing light attitude that's floating around.

I have this theory that depending on your attitude your life doesn't have to become this ridiculous charade that it seems so many people end up living.

I don't know much about auctions. I sometimes go to previews and see art sardined into ugly rooms. I've gawked at the gaudy prices and gaped at well-clad crowds of happy white people conspicuously spending hundreds of millions of dollars.

Megacollectors suppose they can enter art history by spending astronomical amounts.

It was Public Art defined as art that is purchased by experts who are not spending their own personal money.

Stories are amazing and powerful because they can resonate with people depending on their needs and experiences and speak truths we need to hear in that moment in time.

I think the amazing thing about gospel music is that not only does it lift up the death and resurrection of our Lord which is consistent with the Gospel but it is uniquely communicated depending upon the generation.

I love being around my friends and my family and spending time with my husband. I like being normal and recharging my batteries and I feel like I have the coolest job in the world where I get to get on stage and perform and get to do a lot of really amazing things.

But there's not enough time in life to go sit at a party have a drink and make idle conversation. There's too many important things to do. Just being together with my husband spending time alone which I have very little of.

The foundations of a strong economy don't rest alone on the decisions of Chancellors or the spending programmes of government.

I just broke up with my boyfriend and I've been spending more time alone than I'd like.

What troubles me is the Internet and the electronic technology revolution. Shyness is fueled in part by so many people spending huge amounts of time alone isolated on e-mail in chat rooms which reduces their face-to-face contact with other people.

We need quiet time to examine our lives openly and honestly - spending quiet time alone gives your mind an opportunity to renew itself and create order.

We can be tired weary and emotionally distraught but after spending time alone with God we find that He injects into our bodies energy power and strength.
